MAKES AMERICA A FIGURE
Paris. Tho leader of the power
ful radical socialist opposition
Edouard Ilerriott, brought Franco
America relations into the trench
election campaign Sunday when he
declared that Fiance should tell this
to tho United States: "If our af
fairs do not interest you, then let
us alone."
(Tho radical socialists are next
to the straight socialists in strength
n the chamber of deputies with 109
members in their single bloc, and
might bo described better for the
American voter if they were called
merely "liberal." France elects a
new chamber next Sunday.)
The former premier was making
an attack on Premium Tardieu in an
address at Avignon, when he brought
the United States into the campaign
oratory. M. Herriott protested
gainst the Hoover moratorium and
asserted former Premier Laval's visit
to Washington was unnecessary.

Part of the details of a dispatch
declaring that Governor Bryan had
joined with the executives of Kan
sas and Missouri in consenting to a
division headquarters organization of
the National Guard were corrected
Tuesday by Adjutant General Paul
of the Nebraska regiment.
Bryan's consent lias not yet been
forthcoming, General Paul said, altho
word was sent to the Missouri and
Kansas military leaders that there
probably would be no objection by
the governor to such an organiza
tion.
The National Guard regiments of
three states, Nebraska and her two
southern neighbors, comprise th
Thirty-fifth division, no? the Twen
ty-fifth, as reported in Monday's dis
patch. All other National Guard di
visions in the country have their di
vision headquarters and staffs which
assumo actual significance only in
case they are called upon for duty
by the president. The divisional
headquarters does not function as
such during state camps or in ser-
ice of the states individually.
It is likely that if the three states
Inally agree on a plan, Gen. W. A.
Raupp of Missouri will be the first
division commander .with the rank
of mijor general. He will reach the
retirement age of sixty-four in No
vember of this year and is scheduled
to be succeeded as commander by
Gen. Charles I. Martin of Kansas
The latter now is in command of
the 69th Infantry brigade with the
rank of brigadier general.
When General Martin is moved up,
lie will bo succeeded as brigadier
general by Col. Amos Thomas of
Omaha, now in charge of the Ne
braska section of the Sixty-ninth
brigade. General Martin is scheduled
to retire in shortly over two years,
whereupon command of the division
will be vested in the Nebraska com
mander. The governors of Kansas and Mis
souri met Monday with Gen. George
Leach, chief of the Militia bureau,
at Richmond, Va., during the gover
nors conference and agreed to the
foregoing setup. Delay in general
staff organization for the Thirty
fifth division has been due largely
to failure of Kansas and Missouri
to agree as to whose chief should
take precedent as commander.
